From the start of his rookie season, Robinson showcased impressive vision, patience, and decisiveness as a runner. His ability to break tackles and elude defenders allowed him to be productive. This was important because of the struggling offensive line. Not only was Robinson effective as a runner, but he also proved to be a valuable receiver out of the backfield.

Robinson broke many records and achieved several milestones. He became the first undrafted rookie in team history to start at running back in Week 1. He also finished the season with 1,070 rushing yards and seven rushing touchdowns.

The former Illinois State Redbird represented a bright spot amidst a rebuilding process. Robinson's success and contributions helped uplift the team's morale and generate optimism for the future.
